They bailed them out to the tune of £10k per person in the UK. Not per taxpayer, per person, children included! If they’d given that money to the people instead I can one hundred percent guarantee we wouldn’t be where we are now. I’d like to live in that timeline tbh.

This🧵 not only explains why AI is unavoidably shit But it also explains why philosophers cannot define chairs v stools & it serves to remind, us to spend more time IN reality [ideally in elusive “poetry clubs”] & less time doing philosophy or online Don’t confuse means with ends End (+ALT text)

One of the most common arguments you hear from fans of generative ‘AI’ is that it’s not plagiarizing people’s work, it’s just learning like a human learns. So I’m going to break down why that’s just not true, and why it can never be true, with the existing systems. 1/

So good. Jazz break occurring.

It's Friday, so, obviously, it's Jazz and Poetry night in a speakeasy set up in my very local museum as part of @bradford2025.co.uk Nice to see the old Jowett cars (built about a mile away) still take pride of place. #Bradford @bradfordspeakeasy.bsky.social ##CityofCulture2025

Happy World Poetry Day to all who celebrate. If you’re interested in writing poetry yourself, I hope this poem will be of some use.

“Poetry Club”? Niiiccee. [Fast Show fans will really like the alt text on this one!]

People often ask me, at “Poetry Club” will there be whisky? “Of course!” I reply. It wouldn’t be much of a “Poetry Club” without Whisky, I mean Jazz, I mean poems… poems! poetry comes as standard. @bfdcathedral.bsky.social @bradfordmuseums.bsky.social @bradford2025.co.uk @bradfordlitfest.bsky.social
